"This land will never be free of its dead," they concede with a nod. Nor do they think it wants to be; Water Country is a harsh land with an at-times palpable apathy for the living, but oh, is she jealous of her dead. Lose your life in a swamp or a tidal wave, and not even your bones will wash back up on her shores. Haku imagines it as a type of love: possessive and obsessive, maybe, but wasn't it nice to be wanted?

They link their arm through their cousin's and tug her playfully against their side, leading her deeper into the garden they've chosen to walk through tonight. "But neither are we, cousin. Kirigakure is different now. The village has the same bones, but there's new blood coursing through it. New life. New opportunities, for all of us."

"Yet you bark orders like you're my superior. You don't know what you are anymore, do you?" Haku snaps, their throat tightening. They've been nothing but polite and excited to meet another Yuki clan member so far away from home ( or, perhaps, closer to home than they've ever been, out here in the bowels of Snow Country ), but ever since the elder Yuki learned they were a shinobi of Kirigakure, it's been nothing but pot shots and incendiary comments from him. Their patience is beginning to fray.

Sasuke looks at the woman blankly because, to him, distrust is a normal behavior in this world. It's natural self-preservation.

"I can only answer for myself," he says, after a pause. "However, the world is full of danger. It's smart not to be trusting, anyway."

@mistdaze // ( birthday asks →  accepting   ) "Happy birthday, Little brother." Yuichiro mumbled sheepishly while bumping Muichiro's shoulder with his fist. Perhaps he could have just led with 'it's our birthday!' but that was enough to make him physically cringe. He held out a small cloud plush. "I got this for you. Since you liked staring at the clouds so much. Now you can have one of your own and it's really soft."

It was a light nudge, one he could easily have moved from. Yet he playfully would stumble from the other's touch. Turning to look at him with a smile, one that stretched from ear to ear. He turns on a heel to face the elder twin. A small plush pushed into his arms by Yuichiro. It is soft to the touch and has a small amount of give when he gives it a tentative squish.

Truly, the kakushi could have decked him in the head with a daikon and left it at that- And it would have been more than enough to make him smile. Yet, the twin went out of his way for the other. Retrieving him something tangible. Something that would be forever linked back to him. His arms rush forward, wrapping around the twin. Embracing him into a tight hug. One that might be too tight for most, but for the mist pillar- Who had almost lost the other once, was just right. To ensure he wouldn't disappear before him. Not ever again.
